Question 16 • IA-Chemistry A Survey of Chemistry A

What is most likely to happen when two fluorine (F) atoms bond?

Answer
A
Electrons will be equally attracted to both atoms.
B
One atom will attract electrons more strongly than the other.

Explanation

Two fluorine atoms are identical, so they have the same electronegativity—the same ability to attract shared bonding electrons. Therefore, the electrons are equally attracted to both atoms, rather than one fluorine pulling them more strongly.
